In addition, when a low coefficient of thermal expansion is required, there are problems such as poor chemical resistance despite the use of a large amount of PPD.

When the amount of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether is less than 20 mol%, it is difficult to subsequently form a polyimide film, and therefore it is not preferred. When it exceeds 60 mol%, the low hygroscopicity and low dielectric properties caused by meta-toluidine are not significant, and therefore it is not preferred.

The mixture was then cured under a nitrogen atmosphere at temperatures ranging from 130°C (4 minutes) to 280°C (4 minutes) to 420°C (4 minutes) to obtain a polyimide film. At this point, the film thickness was 33.5 μm.

[0089] For the polyimide films of Examples 1-1 to 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-1 and 1-2, samples with a length of 80 mm and a width of 15 mm were prepared. The modulus of the samples was measured at a rate of 20 mm / min using an Instron 5564 UTM instrument from INSTRON Corporation, and the average value of 10 samples was calculated. The results are shown in Table 3 below.

[0090] (4) Chemical resistance

[0091] For the polyimide films of Examples 1-1 to 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-1 and 1-2, chemical resistance based on thickness and chemical resistance based on weight were measured, and the results are shown in Table 3 below.

[0092] The aforementioned thickness-based chemical resistance and weight-based chemical resistance were measured according to ASTM D570 absorption rate, respectively. Regarding immersion and storage criteria in solution, chemical resistance was measured by examining the changes in weight and thickness after immersion in a 15% NaOH solution and storage at 60°C for 30 minutes.

[0098] Furthermore, when comparing the physical properties with and without blocks at the same content (Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-2), although other physical properties are similar, it can be found that the heat resistance and chemical resistance are significantly superior when blocks are included.

[0099] These results demonstrate that the polyamic acid of the present invention and the polyimide film prepared therefrom exhibit excellent heat resistance, chemical resistance, moisture resistance and mechanical properties without the use of p-phenylenediamine (PPD).

[0100] Furthermore, the polyimide film according to the present invention does not use p-phenylenediamine (PPD), thus it is relatively competitively priced and has excellent productivity and process efficiency.

Therefore, the invention may also be practiced in ways other than those specifically described and illustrated herein, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
